Chapter 44: The Man at the Bottom of the Well

It only took less than half an hour for Xie An to change from an unlucky captive to a little gentleman of these children, and he wondered if he would show his calligraphy level again, and if he flickered a few more words, they should just let him go?

It's a pity that before he could start to implement this wishful thinking, the legendary "boss" and his party returned, as the upper echelons of the ruffian gang of homeless people, they collected a small amount of silver from these children every month to give them food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But it seems that these people are not very old, the oldest looks no more than twenty years old, could it be the private support of a local tyrant in Guangling?

But when the "boss" covered his nose, the people who followed behind him looked frightened, and the dog baby heard the movement and went up, and as soon as he saw the boss, he shouted: "Angkor!" What's wrong with your nose? What about Brother Sun and Mr. Xiaohe? ”

"Phew! Don't say it, I thought that woman was delicate and easy to deal with, but it turned out to be a crazy one, and I cut off Xiao Sun's nose with a sword, and I was also injured next to him just now, but it's not serious! Angkor covered his nose and broke into the small dilapidated house, and there were dark crimson blood marks on the front of the placket.

Seeing that Xie An did not escape, Angkor's face improved slightly, and he said to the children: "Xiao He Ke was unlucky, he was stabbed by that woman and fell on the street, I just asked Xiao Sun Xiao and the two to carry him to the doctor to see if he can be saved, and now come back and get the money!" ”

The dog baby looked dazed, turned to Xie An and asked, "...... That woman knows martial arts? ”

Xie An nodded, "Otherwise, why do you think I escaped in the middle of the night?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, boy, no matter what your relationship with that woman is, now we need money to save people, if you can't come up with the money, then we have to sell you." Angkor looked him up and down, squinting his eyes and threatening, "But you have a good skin, you can sell it for a good price...... Hmph, you can do it yourself! ”

……

As soon as he heard that he was going to sell him, Xie An couldn't help but roll his eyes, and before he could refute, the dog baby hurriedly spoke for him, "Angkor really harms Yin and morality, don't do it!" This little gentleman is a good man! ”

Thinking that this Angkor was also because of a sword, the blood did not stop, and his mind was uncertain, and at this moment, he listened to the children chattering and pleading for Xie An, and finally did not say such ugly threatening words again.

Seeing this, Xie An took out the jade pendant that he had been preparing for a long time, and interjected: "At the moment, it's not a matter of arguing about how to deal with me, but it's important to save people, I have a jade pendant here, although it is not a precious jade, but it can also be exchanged for some silver." ”

Now Angkor has nothing to say, although the displaced people come from various places, but as long as everyone lives together, they are brothers and sisters, and it is naturally important to save people.

Angkor took the jade pendant, but he didn't mean to let Xie An go, and he was afraid that he would be better off if he continued to stay with the children, so when he went out, he not only took away a group of children, but also tied Xie An up and ordered someone to throw him into the dry well in the outer courtyard.

It turned out that the dry well was used to lock people up, so it is no wonder that the little finch threw an egg into it when he entered the house, so that it could be eaten by the people in the well.

Xiao Que whispered in his ear: "Don't be afraid, little sir, the bottom of the well has been dug very big by us, and now there is a very thick grass mat, and it will only hurt a little when you throw it down." ”

If you dig a little bigger, you can engage in tunnel warfare, right......

When Xie An was thrown into the well of the black hole, he was so cold that he shivered and sneered.

As for being thrown down so obediently, he completely relied on Xie Shang's plug-in, relying on Xie Shang's strict doting on him. If he grows up, he will have no reason to enjoy the care of his brothers, and he has been a child for five years, making him from an introverted orphan in his previous life to a happy lazy person who is now extremely dependent on his brother.

This kind of blessing is not something that everyone can enjoy.

And he was also very curious, who was locked up in the well, and the little finch cared so much about him, and gave the eggs that the poor were reluctant to eat to the man in the well, that person must not be a bad person, right?

He rubbed his aching buttocks and shoulders, leaned against the cold wall of the well, which was still slightly steamy, mossy, and cold, and finally managed to adapt to the darkness at the bottom of the well, and vaguely saw a man in the corner not far away, getting up from a reed mat and walking towards him.

Then the man grew so tall that he leaned down, shoved something into his bosom, and shrank back without saying a word.

That thing was an egg, it seemed that Xiao Que had just thrown it down, and this person didn't eat it, but gave it to Xie An.

Xie An stretched his legs, then walked over and stuffed the egg back into his arms, "Little Finch gave it to you, I'm full, I don't need to eat." ”

The man seemed to nod his head, giving up half of his position beside him, and Xie An sat down, ready to start talking and checking the account.

"My name is Ahri, what about you?"

“…… Oggi. "It's a teenager's voice.

Xiaomu, it's either a nickname or a pseudonym, everyone is each other, Xie An doesn't care, the name doesn't matter.

Xie An patiently continued to ask, "How old are you?" I'm nine years old. ”

"Thirteen...... Not fourteen. ”

"Why did you get caught here? I was robbed by them, but they have already taken my jade pendant, so it shouldn't be too difficult for me, right? ”

"I can't get out."

Xiao Mu spoke briefly, and his words were as precious as gold, Xie An suddenly became more talkative and talkative, but Xiao Mu could still talk as little as possible.

Xiao Mu's voice was unwavering: "The people in the well will be sold to the traffickers." ”

Wait a minute? Sell to traffickers? In the well? In other words, Angkor will not only take his jade pendant, but also sell him?

Xie An finally became a little uneasy, and asked again: "Do you know where to sell?" ”

"East Seaside." Xiao Mu hesitated for a moment and said dumbly.

Was this boy beaten stupid or frightened? How can it be so calm?

Sold to the East China Sea? Is it Tokai County next door? Xie An was a little confused by his words, what are you selling to the beach? He racked his brains and could only think of one: and that was to sell it to the pirates.

But there should be no shortage of people in Haikou, there are not as many displaced people as registered now, if you want to sell, then it must be to sell special talents?

Just now Angkor knew about Xie An's lecture, so did Angkor think that he was a young man from a well-read family and thought that he could be sold as a cultural talent? Does Haikou need to learn to read and write? Is this going to be good? How could it be!

And what about this little wood next to him? What kind of talent is it?

It shouldn't be able to do martial arts, otherwise this well shouldn't be able to defeat a tall boy.

It's also a blind guess to guess, Xie An saw that he was so sincere, so he simply asked directly, and really got the young man's answer: "I will repair the ship." ”

This really gave Xie An the right guess, the Haikou fleet needs talents, it seems that it is to make a big posture, in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Haikou were scattered troops, active in the Jiangzuo estuary, but unfortunately the Eastern Jin Dynasty has just stabilized, and there is a threat from the north, so naturally there is no time to exterminate the Haikou on a large scale.

Xiao Mu was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he could repair ships, Xie An couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Mu, you used to live by the sea?" ”

Xiao Mu's dumb voice was a little sad, "No, I have never seen the sea, and even if I go to the beach in the future, I won't be able to see the sea." ”

Xie An subconsciously asked, "Why?" ”

Xiao Mu said calmly: "Because I can't see." ”

Xie An raised his head suddenly, looking at the young man's face carefully, the light leaking from the well was as thin as a light mist, they were so close, but he could still barely see Xiao Mu's face clearly, it should be a young man with a rather delicate appearance.

Xie An stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, his eyes not even blinking.

"My eyes were white, and I couldn't see much three years ago, but if there was light, I could see things near me vaguely, but it was like through a thick fog." Xiao Mu's tone was light and sad, "But I can repair ships, so it can be useful." ”

Sounds like he was sold voluntarily?

What an honest boy from the Peach Blossom Garden! What a stupidity!

Xie An wants to say, this eye, my master Ge Hong will be able to govern!

But useful information should be used at the right time, after all, he seems to be in a bad situation right now!

=====================================

Today is Valentine's Day, Xie Xiaoan and his new teammates are relatively silent at the bottom of the well, and the One Piece copy is about to open (don't believe it). Shout for Xie Xiaoan: I really want to go back to Jiankang to bully Huan Xiaowen and be beaten by Xizhi!

Thank you for the reward of Xiao Chenchen for sleeping~
